Carport Clutter
Getting the carport clutter organized and contained.
“Only entropy comes easy.” — Anton Chekhov
Yeah, I feel that. My carport shelf was intended to make things neat, but it did the exact opposite… it became a magnet for clutter coated with pollen and grime.
Even the most organized pile of junk is still a pile of junk.
The first step in any worthwhile cleaning project is to turn a mess into an even bigger mess.
Okay, I take it back. The first step is actually online shopping. However, problems arise when you discover half-way through the project that the purchased item is defective, and you then have to look at this pile of junk in your parking space for a few weeks while a replacement arrives.
Garbage enclosure assembled! Just one catch: my existing garbage bin is too big by about half an inch. Luckily I have a neighbor willing to trade their square-footprint bin for my rectangle-footprint bin.
Crisis averted.
With storage units assembled, the next step is to install shelves. No one shelf can hold too much, since the L-bracket supports are screwed into pretty thin plastic. But it’s plenty strong to hold what I need it to hold.
Nice and tidy!
Thule Box Hangers
Pulley hangers for the Thule box make it easier for me to attach and detach it from the roof rack.
